Arthur's Computer Disaster

As a huge fan of the television series, I was greatly disappointed at the lazy and sub-par writing of the books. The illustrations are very poorly done as well (especially if you have older editions of the books). Not good. just watch the show; it's on at seven on PBS every morning. ( )

Arthur scrambles to find a way to fix the computer he broke after being told not to touch it. If he had been honest and confessed what he did, he would have learned that his problem could be easily fixed. It's a nice story for young children. ( )

Arthur loves playing games on his mother's computer, but when he uses it without permission, chaos ensues. Arthur and his cohorts search desperately for a solution, and in the process learn a lesson about following rules and respecting others.

Arthur's mom told him to not use her computer but when him and Buster get together things happen that normally wouldn't. When the computer stops working after spending hours playing a game, Buster and Arthur try to devise a plan to get them in the clear. A great book to teach students about following directions. ( )
